$UICIDEBOY$ x Getter - RADICAL $UICIDE (2016)

People have been trying to locate the comic in which the album art is grabbed from. If you know what it is, please lemme know, I'd like to check it out if it's even half as good as this EP is.. Because then it'd at least be REALLY fucking good.

The first time I had ever heard of $UICIDEBOY$ it was through one of my buddies, and I immediately made fun of them because.. Y'know, damn, how can you not with a name like that? Anyhow, he kept listening to them and talking about it, saying that they had the best beats in the game and all that shit, so then, one night that July, I decided to check out a release by them, starting with their newest, "RADICAL $UICIDE" which had came out just the week before. I went in with very, -very- low expectations.. And holy fuck, this shit just blew me the Goddamn fuck away. It was while listening to this EP that I thought "holy shit, I could be a huge fan of these guys" and I am, but for all of those wondering if this is like most $UICIDEBOY$ releases.. THINK AGAIN, MOTHERFUCKER: $crim is still helping a bit with the production on this, but mainly, the production is handled by Getter, a dubstep DJ, and while the beats aren't dubstep in the slightest, Getter clearly just -gets- what makes trap so much fucking fun and cranks that shit up to 11, providing some of the most bombastic-ass beats in the entire $UICIDEBOY$ discography, sounding unlike anything that $crim had done before, even going as far as to sample clips of their own music for choruses this time around, instead of relying on Three 6 Mafia samples, so that they could put this shit up on iTunes, and I gotta say.. Sampling themselves was a fucking brilliant idea and works to perfect results.

At just five tracks and ten minutes, this EP fucking annihilates without even coming close to staying out its welcome, bringing something new to the table in every song. "Stop Calling Us Horrorcore" opens the EP up and is the fucking PERFECT song for cruising late at night in your car, immediately testing out your car's subwoofers by stabbing them repeatedly. "Champion of Death" is next and is my all-time favorite song these guys have ever put out: From the killer chorus that samples part of Ruby da Cherry's verse in "Sarcophagus III", to the beat that blares and could deafen a lesser man, to the insane flows, this song will turn nearly any naysayer into a fan. "Goosebumps" is third and has some great southern-rap flows on it, and is probably the song that you'd wanna listen to while sipping lean, but hey: I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT DRUGS, OKAY? NEVER DONE A FUCKIN' WEED EVER. "Magazine" is just hard as fucking bricks and features an incredibly hype verse from Ruby da Cherry to start it off, but between him and $crim, they're just spitting so fucking hard over a smooth guitar lick that it'd knock an oldhead's head backwards. "Memoirs of a Gorilla" is last, features a KILLER $crim verse leading into an absolutely fucking terrifying Ruby da Cherry verse that'll leave you wondering "What the fuck is he saying?! How the fuck did he come up with this?!" and is just so over-the-top that there couldn't even possibly be a better ending to this EP.

While we're on the subject of that, let's talk about the rapping: The guys REALLY stepped their game up on this to the point where it's a legitimate argument on every single fucking song on who bodied the beat harder, and the way they switch up their flows is fucking crazy: You'll hear Ruby da Cherry do everything from a smooth Houston-flavored to a choppy verse that'd give Eminem's "Rap God" a run for its money. $crim has commonly been held up as the weaker rapper in the group before, even if he's still dope as fuck, but here.. Fuck, dude, he can sound creepy as fuck, street-wise, and like a real underground spitter that your awkward college roommate would love. On this EP, $crim and Ruby da Cherry attack every single beat relentlessly, making a bloodbath before the EP's 10 minute run-time is over, and prove themselves of being extremely capable MC's that DEMAND your respect with a gun in your back.

This EP is just.. Fuck, dude, I honestly think it's perfect and will never get the props that it truly deserves. Getting a dubstep producer to make explosive trap beats for two extremely skilled MCs is just perfect. This EP is a motherfucking classic, and if you've never heard it, get on it. Now. GET ON IT LIKE YOUR GODDAMN FUCKING LIFE DEPENDED ON IT. MOTHERFUCK YOU.

10/10
